Understanding High School Mathematics Course Offerings:

How can students participate in mathematics throughout high school in a way that is relevant to and supportive of post-secondary and career interests?

During this session we will discuss mathematics graduation requirements and how to support students in navigating the various course offerings currently available in FCPS.

Students and their families may start thinking about what course pathways are available beginning in middle school. Join us to learn more.

From our SRO:

SRO

Our students should always be able to be safe on their way to and from the school on the bus.  If there is something or someone in the community that is causing concern at a bus stop, do not hesitate to contact me and let me know about it.

If your student has something happen at the bus stop that causes them to feel unsafe, have them call 9-1-1 right away.

Talk to your child and come up with a plan for what to do.  If you need any further suggestions for safety at the bus stop, reach out to me.  I would be happy to talk.
